Abstract: Absorbent products for absorbing body fluids which are worn in conjunction with an undergarment (200) are disclosed. The absorbent product (100) comprises an absorbent core having a body facing surface, a garment facing surface and longitudinal edges. The absorbent products of the present invention utilize semi-rigid clip means (110) for retaining the absorbent product with respect to the undergarment (200). Most preferably, such clip means (110) are disposed on the garment facing surface and approximately at each lateral edge of the absorbent core. Twisting and other undesirable movement of the pad is thus reduced by a portion of the undergarment being retained between the semi-rigid clip means (110) and the garment facing surface. Numerous alternate embodiments of clip means which grip the garment edge, as well as those which extend transversely across the garment facing surface are disclosed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Circuit de commande permettant de fournir des rafales plutôt que des quantités d'énergie alternant continuellement destiné à être utilisé pour la commande d'un tube (canalisation) de débit dans un fluxmètre de Coriolis et méthodes d'utilisation dans un tel circuit. Plus particulièrement, le circuit de commande fournit une rafale prédéterminée d'énergie à une bobine d'excitation fixée à la canalisation à un point approprié pendant un cycle du mouvement oscillatoire de la conduite de façon à maintenir l'amplitude de crête du mouvement oscillatoire essentiellement dans une limite prescrite. Cette rafale peut être appliquée en un point prédéterminé, par exemple la crête, dans chaque cycle du mouvement oscillatoire sans autre application d'énergie durant ce cycle que celle due à l'impulsion de manière à réduire la quantité d'énergie électrique appliquée à la bobine d'excitation. D'autre part, afin d'obtenir une réduction d'énergie supplémentaire, il n'est pas nécessaire d'appliquer une rafale durant chacun de ces cycles mais plutôt à ces points prédéterminés, par exemple, les crêtes, durant ces cycles où la vitesse du débit est inférieure à une valeur limite prédéterminée.

Abstract: A web-spool (40) for a cartridge (10) comprises a cylindrical core (44) having an outer periphery at each end thereof with at least one core lug (48) and an annular ring (52) extending radially outward from each periphery in axially spaced relation to form a core peripheral groove (54) therebetween at each core end. The annular rings (52, 52) at both core ends have respective inner tapered surfaces (56, 56) that face each other to initially guide a web (42) being wound onto the core (44), and also to provide clearance between the wound web edges and adjacent core flanges (46, 46), to thereby accommodate any web telescoping and thus permit the flanges (46, 46) to be readily secured to the core ends without interfering with the web edges. Each flange (46) has an axially inner surface with an annular throat (64) extending axially outward therefrom for receiving the core lug(s) (48) and annular ring (52). Within the annular throat (64) is at least one radially inwardly extending flange lug (66) with recesses (70 and 71) at both sides thereof, the flange lug(s) (66) being adapted to nest within the core peripheral groove (54), and the recesses (70 and 71) being adapted to receive the core lug(s) (48) and the core ring (52) respectively, when a core end is inserted into the flange throat (64), the core (44) and flange (46) then being rotatably relative to each other to secure them (44 and 46) together. Complementary ratchet teeth (55 and 78) are provided on opposed mating surfaces (76 and 80) of the core (44) and flange (46), to permit relative rotation therebetween in one direction for securing the two (44 and 46) together, and to prevent relative rotation in the opposite direction and consequent unintended disassembly of those members (44 and 46).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil (32) de traitement par fluide de la membrane d'une fibre creuse pour le transfert de masse ou d'énergie au travers de la membrane. Il est conçu en particulier mais non exclusivement pour être utilisé dans des oxygénateurs de membrane. Des membranes (202) de fibres creuses s'étendent sensiblement longitudinalement, et des premières fibres inertes (204) sont espacées entre ces membranes et s'étendent également longitudinalement. Des secondes fibres inertes (206) s'étendent généralement transversalement aux fibres creuses (202) et sont en général contigües à ces dernières, de sorte qu'un premier fluide (de préférence un gaz contenant de l'oxygène) peut passer au travers des fibres creuses (202) et un second fluide (de préférence du sang) peut passer par dessus leur extérieur pour effectuer un transfert de masse ou d'énergie au travers de la membrane. En général, les secondes fibres inertes (206) forment une trame (208) et les premières fibres inertes (204) sont espacées entre deux fibres creuses (202) de sorte que l'enroulement consiste en brins alternés de fibre creuse (202) et de première fibre inerte (204) passant par-dessus la trame (208) d'une manière oscillatoire pour définir au moins en partie la dimension de la pellicule fluide qui doit passer par-dessus la membrane de la fibre creuse (202) pour effectuer le transfert de masse ou d'énergie au travers de la membrane. Les fibres inertes (204, 206) sont généralement des polymères monofilaments biocompatibles qui assurent un espacement précis des fibres creuses (202) pour produire des films sanguins uniformes. En général, l'appareil (32) est disposé dans un passage (58) de circulation du sang d'un oxygénateur de membrane, et est agencé en couche de rubans dimensionnée pour s'adapter au canal (58) de circulation du sang, les premières fibres inertes (204) maintenant espacées les fibres creuses (202) de sorte que ces dernières (202) sont décalées entre elles d'une couche à l'autre.

Date Apr. 30, 1992.A thermostat system includes a liquid-filled activating device (1), and an operating device (3) which is connected to the activating device by a capillary line (4) and which is adapted to control a heat valve. The activating device (1) includes an annular base plate (10) having a rear surface which is adapted to be mounted against a supporting wall, and the base plate defines a central region which is bounded thereby. A fluid filled housing (8) is mounted to the base plate so as to extend outwardly from the central region and away from the supporting wall, and an axially extending tube (9) is mounted in the housing so as to be axially extended or contracted by the temperature and pressure of the fluid in the housing, and which in turn changes the fluid capacity of the housing and signals the operating device (3). A rotatable knob (5) acts to adjust the length of the tube and thus controls the operating temperature of the system. The fact that the fluid-filled housing and the extendable tube are positioned essentially entirely outside the area bounded by the base plate assures proper circulation of the ambient air to the device and thus a sufficient heat exchange so as to be able to detect the actual room temperature.

Abstract: The appts. (9) for read-out of the meter state from a specific measurement unit (1) is attached to the unit with a display (11). A code is transmitted to a memory in the reading appts. (9). If at a later time, the reading appts. is further connected to the same measurement unit the code remains in the memory, and the corresp. memory of the appts. receives the new meter state. On a specific day all the meter states of all available measurement units (1) are fed with the corresp. code. The fed-out data are sent complete to a calculating point, where the data are read-out. A data carrier is removed from the appts. (9) and sent, or the fed-out data are transmitted to the calculating point via a corresp. modem and a telephone line. At the calculating point, the incoming data are checked for accuracy, i.e. as to whether all measurement units installed for a specific user have the corresp. code and a meter state. If this is not the case, the reading is repeated.
